I posted this in the body shop forum but didn't get any info. Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction, I attached a few pics of what I have going on, the last photo is looking up into the wheel well. Will the wheel well and the inner fender brace be mainly what I need? The panels I've been able to find all say for fleet side truck will this work on the suburban? Have any of you repaired this from scratch? I dont think the wheel well would be too bad but the inner brace would not be something I think I could form by hand. Have any of you guys repaired this area? Thanks again for the help!

I went ahead and cut all the bad out , I put some pictures on here. So heres what I think I'm going to do. I had some wheel wells for a k10 truck which are wider all three dimensions. It will take some time to measure it all out to be sure it's cut just right, the wall in the cab and the outer part wheel well/tub will need to be cut at a different height and angle. What the larger wheel well will allow me to do is 20190826_212741.jpg 20190826_215837.jpg 20190826_215837.jpg 20190826_204651.jpg cut out all the rust inside the cab as well as the damaged outer/tub section. And when the wheel well is slid through the cut out I can line that up to meet with the the cut on the outside/tub.
 
Blazooki thanks for the link. I read through your build thread on Ned the other day, very impressive build!
